Answer:
(1)0.39
(2)0.14
(3)0.21
(4)0.26
Step-by-step explanation:
John makes 35% of his free throw shots.
- The probability that John makes his shot =0.35
- The probability that John misses his shot =1-0.35=0.65
Sue makes 40% of her free throw shots.
- The probability that Sue makes her shot =0.4
- The probability that Sue misses her shot =1-0.4=0.6
(1)John and sue both miss their shots
P(John and sue both miss their shots)
=P(John miss his shot) X P(Sue misses her shot)
=0.65 X 0.6 =0.39
(2)John and Sue both make their shots
P(John and Sue both make their shots)
=P(John makes his shot) X P(Sue makes her shot)
=0.35 X 0.4=0.14
(3)John makes his shot and Sue misses hers
P(John makes his shot and Sue misses hers)
=P(John makes his shot) X P(Sue misses her shot)
=0.35 X 0.6=0.21
(4)John misses his shot and Sue makes hers
P(John misses his shot and Sue makes hers)
=P(John miss his shot) X P(Sue makes her shot)
=0.65 X 0.4 =0.26
Answer:
5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Hospital A (with 50 births a day), because the more births you see, the closer the proportions will be to 0.5.
Hospital B (with 10 births a day), because with fewer births there will be less variability.
The two hospitals are equally likely to record such an event, because the probability of a boy does not depend on the number of births
Answer:
3/10. 1/2 and 7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
For P(x) = x/10
When x = 3;
Then;
P(3) = 3/10
When x = 5
Then;
P(5) = 5/10
= 1/2
When, x = 7
Then;
P(7) = 7/10
Answer:
13.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometric sequence of arc lengths can be described by ...
f(n) = a·b^n
We have (n, f(n)) = (3, 20) and (7, 12). Using these values, we can find the common ratio (b):
20 = a·b^3
12 = a·b^7
Then ...
12/20 = (a·b^7)/(a·b^3) = b^4 = 3/5
We want the 6th term, which we can get from the 7th term by multiplying by b^-1.
b^(-1) = (b^4)^(-1/4) = (3/5)^(-1/4) = √(√(5/3)) ≈ 1.13622
Then the 6th swing had an arc length of ...
f(6) = f(7)·b^-1
f(6) = (12 ft)(1.13622) ≈ 13.63 ft ≈ 13.6 ft
Answer:
x = 3.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Reference angle = 24°
Hypotenuse = 4
Side adjacent to reference angle = x
We would apply the trigonometric ratio, CAH, which is:
Cos 24 = adj/hyp
Cos 24 = x/4
4 × Cos 24 = x
x = 3.65418183 ≈ 3.7 (to nearest tenth)
